Gemini
Chapter Three
Jace’s POV
I stood outside the pack house building, that we don’t usually come to anymore except for when we have some really important issues to discuss or deal with, which is exactly what was going to happen today , Jac my wolf growled angrily and i clamped down on him trying to get him to control himself. I know the amount of pain we are both going through and I was angry as well but the meeting had to hold.
Walking inside the empty pack house since the other wolves has not yet arrived I had the whole house to myself , and looking at the fire place in the lounge room, I remembered how father and mother would lie there together totally enamored with each other. Where everyone else just fades away except from them.
But that place also reminds me of how father looked very pitiful after mothers death and he too was dying , I remember him crying there like a baby, and it made me hate the concept of love because it made you weak and the moon goddess mating bond kills you period.
I made up my mind never to love any woman or get a mate, and I chose a marriage of convenience when I get to be with a woman that I can tolerate , that way no matter what happens I will be strong enough and not die and leave my children to fend for themselves.
I see how everyone turns into idiots when they fall in love and mostly how they all go raving mad when they find their mate but that will never happen to me, because even if I meet my mate I am definitely rejecting her and continuing with my wife no matter what.
I stepped into the study that once belonged to my father, hearing that another Alpha will soon die after a demon killed his Luna nearly made me go mad today with rage, and I know how ridiculous this sounds but we have to stop this mating bullshit from continuing if not we will be totally extinct in a short while.
I know my twin brother Nate would stand against it as well as our omega Jordan who just found his mate but a decision has to be made and it has to be made fast before we all loose our minds or in this case die.
I was still lost in thought when I felt my brother step into the study, one of the things that scares me daily is loosing him because of some weak woman who would not even be able to fend for herself, because even though I don’t say it, he is all I have remaining.
“ I see you came back in here , I am impressed Jace , you have not stepped foot in here for 10years , I am the only one who comes here” I turned and faced him, scanning his body to see that he was alright before sitting on dad’s chair .
“ choosing to come here has its own significance Nate, I need all of you to see exactly what I have been talking about for ten years now, am tired of people dying because of love or some mating bond, it has to stop”
He shook his head and pinched his nose before looking me in the eye “ They are not dying because of love or the mating bond, we have werewolf’s who has been mates and in love for over 50years, they are still very much alive and kicking “
He sighed and continued “ Love is not the killer , neither is the mating bond, demons are and you need to realize this bro, I know we lost our parents because of this but it was not their fault or the moon goddess or love”
I just shook my head, my brother was a romantic and it was ok but that does not mean that I would not go on with my plans today , it is definitely going to start today , so I just nodded but the way he looked at me he knew I had a plan for today, maybe it’s the twin thing but we are somehow able to tell what the other is thinking about.
“What are you planning Jace, don’t be stupid” he said looking at me like I have lost my mind, I just gaffawed .
“ I am going to do what we should have done a long time ago , and you will do well not to stand in my way” I stood up and walked to the door intending to walk out.
“ I found my mate Jace ; and based on our bond you will find yours any moment from now”
Later on in the meeting I could not put my thought’s together properly, we deliberated on making the pack houses safer and to make sure the women do not go out alone no matter what, then we deligated some wolf warriors with the duty of guarding the pack houses and escorting the ladies when they step out, and to also host a meeting with the Deman chief Viklan to know what he is doing about his rogue Demons.
We concluded that if the right measures were not taken, we would appear before the magic council and have a verdict, but all through that meeting i was not there, I kept remembering my conversation with Nate.
“ What do you mean by you found your mate, when , who is she?” I immediately turned from the door and faced him, he just shrugged and then looked away from me.
“ yea I found her today , Ace confirmed it, but I don’t know who she is, neither does Ace know who her wolf is”
“ why did you not follow her atleast, knowing how eager you are to have a lover and a mate , you are very slow bro” I spoke up angrily because knowing who she is would have been easier to deal with.
Then I heard him laugh, but it was painful .
“ She ran away from me immediately she saw my eyes”
“Wait what?”
